It's quite good, especially for the value and quality you get for such a cheap price.
Also they look sleek asf
Mega Chonk yeah sir its better for some like beats, airpods, Jbl at price up to $200
@@jasonpatrickdeleon4701 agreed
Jiii Piii haha totally
@Matthew Tong there is no such thing as too much bass my guy.
@Matthew Tong yeah, i think it is good for those who just wants to listen to music. Kz's in general does have that v shape,piercing sibilant treble and thumpy bass.
They could get away with selling these for a lot more.
I could say the same for the KBEAR Lark, BQEYZ KC2, and Senfer DT6.
After getting these there's not much of a reason to skip strait to $70-$125 models.
Common chinese business model - small margins huge product volume
I think these cheap chi-fi companies like the guy just mentioned basically make their stuff off of two manufacturers too because of their striking similarities and build quality, which I really don't mind they're all awesome.
@@handlemonium Which of these 3 is the best in your opinion?
@@BMOO69 Um, they all got their strengths.
The "best one 2022" is probably the $30-$40 KZ CRN since it has a better fit than the Lark and an even more balanced than the KC2 due to the Crinacle-inspired tuning.
The DT6 is still a must-buy in my book since it is only tribrid IEM (DD-Piezo-BA) I know for $20-$25 that is all metal and can be "worn down" like cheapo non-detachable wired earbuds. Can wait to try them out with my UTWS3 Bluetooth adapters! 😁
So you know why some stores sell it as Erjigo KZ ZSN? What's Erjigo? Thank you.
have both original and this newer pro version and i find the original non-pro ones to be better and fatigue-free. well done KZ on the tuning, best bang4buck in the audio world.
I bought these and paid extra for memory foam tips , the memory foam wasn’t as good as the rubber ones provided , then changed to silicon tips which I already had and the sound was then fantastic ....
Plastic is nice though. Light on your ears and gentle on your canals too. Though the IEM has issues with harsh music such as rock or metal. Otherwise, its quite damn good for the price.
I have ZSN Pros and I listen to metal music sometimes. What problems would you say you've been facing?
Who tf is spending $17 for tips for their $20 iems ROFL audiophiles are high
Obviously sponsored lol
@@vzero8612 stay away from kz iems they are oversponsored trash...
love this way more then my expensive sonys
Which sonys exactly? Im thinking about buying these KZ

@DMS Mate, first time viewer, and I'm going to put it simply, I just subscribed. Love the content, love the clarity with which explain and reviewed the IEM's, love the video aesthetics and simplicity. You just earned a fan. Well done my friend. Will look into your Patreon.

0:01 Ah yes, Igor and Currents
Nice vid man, i just got mine 3 days ago :) These sounds kinda aggressive but it's still a great iem considering me liking it even though i'm more of a laid-back sound kinda guy
does the it sound nice? is it well balance?
@@kiarturu for the price i wouldn't recommend any other iem more than this . In my opinion it's an all rounder with slight harsh but still easy and fun to listen, though i wouldn't recommend it to basshead who likes boomy bass. I can't say it has balance sound signature since it more prone to show trebles
@@altanman550 ah I see, I think I might go with CCA CA4 since it's more laid-back and well balance sound. People say it sound smooth and quick. A bit confused which one should I get between this two but I have made up my mind now. Thanks buddy for the information. Have a great day
ya skirt. What is the best IEM for some who isn’t really an audiophile ?
@@Rama-wr9yx i totally forgot i commented this. Anyway, you might go for something else. The ca4 sounds kinda boring for me. If you need something bassy go for kbear ks2, if you need a well balanced sound go for kz zsn pro.
Personally I would like something practical like Blon BL03 which is the earphone I'm currently using. It's great for most media so yeah. But nowdays I use headphone which is the Philips SHP9500. I usually hate headphone since the clamp force is brutal but this one is so comfortable. Hope this is helpful
I have a couple pairs of these. They are awesome. The microphone on them works pretty well too. For this price range it's the best out there.
how microphone works? mine not working can you help me?
@@reiii.1757 Are you sure your pair of headphones has a microphone?
@@joshlewis5065 yep and its not working
@@reiii.1757 idk what to tell you
@@reiii.1757 if you are on a pc, you need to have that input selected. On a phone, idk
I want to run IEMs, Over Ear Headphones, and a 2.2 system all at the same time. D;
I have the regular (non pro) ZSNs and love them. Best chi-fi pair of iems that I've owned so far. It would be interesting to see how the Pros sound compared to the regular ones.
I own both, they're very close. The Pro version is sliiightly more v shaped and overall sounds better for "modern" music (edm, synth-heavy pop, rap, etc) but worse for acoustic genres like rock, jazz, classical, punk, etc. The differences are subtle though.
between non pro and pro, i prefer nonpro because how high the treble are on the pro. if you want more relsx sounding go for the non pro
I have a pair of the regular kz zsn pro, I love them other than some peaks up in the high mid range, also I changed the ear tips to a foam tip and it improved the bass response and noise isolation.
When compared to the garbage you get from Skullcandy and other headphone makers for this price. The ZSN Pro's are an amazing value. I love mine
Mine arrived today,definitely sound better than my jbl that cost 80 bucks.
This is going to be great.
Please do a review of the KZ ZS10 Pro.
This ×10
This is one of the best reviews i have seen on these earphones so far. I can tell you know what you're talking about, you clearly have talented ears. Thank you for sharing your talent and knowledge with us.
Can you help me understand why some stores sell it as Erjigo KZ ZSN? What's Erjigo? Thank you.
why would i get 10$ tips for 10$ headphones
I'd like your thoughts on the Koss sp330. Should be competitive in the $90 price range.
very good review DMS, I was just looking for In-Ear headphones so you really helped me, but I have i question about these IEMs- there a difference between the KZ Zsn Pro and the KZ Zsn Pro X, or it just a color?
many people prefer the original pro model cuz the bass is a bit boosted in that compared to x, which has more balanced sound
@@shimeji_e that is what I am actually looking for, thanks you
You need to do the Tin P1. Planar iem's for $150. Your buddy Z did the review so maybe you already know what I'm on about.
z being the hype monkey he usually is. love the guy but it's hard to take him seriously when he goes off about something being great for the umpteenth time this year. i forget what review i watched on them but apparently they lack the bass for electronic and hip hop i dont know about you but that's a insta no thanks from me.
I feel like DMS would review the Tin P2 instead.........
*That earphone tips are pricey compared to the earbuds itself. I personally use spinfits with these (which also cost 10$ for 2 pair but will last way longer than foam tips). If you want to go for the foam tips i would suggest to buy the new bee foam tips then you will get 6 pairs for 7$*
Great review ! I had the zsn pros and couldn't stand the harsh highs , ordered zs10 pros and the hissing is gone.
Compared my ZS10 PRO with friend's ZSN PRO, yea ZS10 PRO high sounds smoother and well more extended, while the ZSN PRO would become harsh and rolls off at 8k, everything beside high freq, they are the same.
I'll finally have an answer after watching this, thanks.
I have the ZSN Pro X and I like the sound of them better than my Porta Pros, my Monoprice 8320's, and even my Grado SR80's, the detail is noticably better, but being IEM's they're a bit of a hassle if a family member interrupts me and I need to take them off quickly. I notice most of the complaints with the ZSN Pros are with the treble being harsh, which is the same complaint I hear a lot about the DT770's. If I like the sound of the ZSN Pros, then do you think the DT770's would be a pretty close match in flavor as far as closed-backs go?
Dt770 has no harsh highs. Even my friend who has sensitive hearing loves them.
@@Kana0211 Got mine a couple months ago and love them!
Can you help me understand why some stores sell it as Erjigo KZ ZSN? What's Erjigo? Thank you.
E2000s are really good for it's price range. What about the cheapest of them all, the E1000?
Actually, there's an E500.
@@handlemonium This comment was sent before the E500 was released
Hi, I've been watching your videos for quite a while but you should probably use a DeEsser with this mic you are using, the sibilance is absolutely unbearable and made it hard to listen to and understand what you were saying.
I have these kz szn pros, these are clear but not pleasant to listen to, extremely sharp, not recommend, I have the kz es4 and they're much better. I also have kz hd9 3usd and the hd9 are better in my opinion.
Are they burned in? I am seriously confused between zsn pro and s4
Even with equalizer?
Can you help me understand why some stores sell it as Erjigo KZ ZSN? What's Erjigo? Thank you.
Vocals have a good amount of thickness for both females and males without being overly thick or thin.
Did you end up finding anything better for the 20 dollar price range?
Blon bl-03
Don't buy a $20 headphone for music listening
I ZSN Pros for when I couldn’t use my Sennheiser HD6XX. They are now what I use everyday.
Would you say that the Final E2000 are the best IEM's you could get for $50 currently?
For me it will be blon 03
How do you think DT1990s will perform in gaming?? Everyone has said they have spectacular imaging so I think they sould work perfectly for competitive gaming.
Do not buy an expensive headphone for gaming
@@dnalekaw4699 expensive headphones are great for gaming if you are going to be using it for other stuff meze classics are super good for gaming
memory foam tips do not improve sound they make sound worse but they seal better
The IEM sounds horrible to me
@@sakiezekiel2572 well its good for its price but that doesnt mean its good it still doesnt sound great but i mean if you use cheap earbuds normally these will sound good but if you are like me and use expensive headphones normally they sound pretty bad
@@mistertaco9260 well, I use cheap earbuds and even then, they sound so much better (been using the JBL tune110 for 7 months). I'm kind of a bass head.
@@sakiezekiel2572 that makes sense then
Just bought them from 1.55 from temu
$16 tips on $14 earbuds ? cant we get something better for $30 ? zs 10 pro ?
Z10 pro also come with the same starline tips(atlest mine did). Personally i use spinfits with both zsn and zs10 pro. They cost around 10$ for 2 pairs but they will last way longer compared to foam tips. For foam tips you can go with the new bee foam tips which cost around 5$-7$ for 6 pairs from aliexpress or amazon
@@arivintejalakam i tried foam tips on my zs 10 pro but got no improvement in isolation or sound, just harder to put than silicon tips, i dont get why some reviewers only swear by foam tips.
@@amanieux ya i agree its a hassle to put it in ear every time
Arivinte Jalakam thanks man
Hi DMS!! What do you think about the IMR-ZENITH and Fiio Fh5?
Martuss Der The best way to get reviews for IEMs is online and on reviewer’s websites
Martuss Der it’s a tough market to understand and get into
@@davidhodgin8900 i have ordered both today. I think is the best way to know how they sound hahaha
FD5 is apparently the soundstage king.
@@handlemonium now i have reviews of a lot of them hahaha
Plz, review the Blon 03.
Please help me with this: these are my latest earphones and i love them. recently i rewarded myself with a decent headset: Sony WH-CH700N. I am absolutely disappointed. The headset doesn't even sound close to these cheap earphones. Is it my ears or the sony. What do you think? I am planning to return them.
You probably just like the brighter sound signature of the KZ, and maybe the bass too. Also, it's what you're used to. I'd give the Sony's some exclusive listening time. It can take time to adjust to a new sound signature. But honestly I haven't heard the Sony's you're talking about so I don't know if they're any good or not.
@@brydon10 thank you. yes, i found the sound too faint in general, or maybe i'm not a sophisticated enough listener to appreciate the sony's sound :) anyway, i'm gonna return them, i think they're not my cup of tea.
@@martyboom1036 Sounds good man. If you're not happy with them then just send them back.
Or you're used to listening to the bass of KZ.
Being off topic what's your experience with those svs speakers as I am about to buy the ultras for building a 5.1 home theater
New kz Ast is more natural sound . Close to reality and as a musician I know sound. They Very good. Good work kz
Can I buy this even if I'm not that good at determining the high, mid, low etc. I just want a good-looking iem, and also sounds really good without breaking the bank.
The sibilance will rape your ear. Not recommended
@@tgmtf5963 use an equalizer. They are manageable.
@@jonahinguito7981 if you have to use a equalizer then it's not a good earphone
@@jonahinguito7981 How much they change with an equalizer?
nice video quality sir
had one, they're "just headphones"
now ordered some spring tips for my starfield from moondrop, which come with another iem (moondrop chu)
crinacle gave high hopes about this one, I can't a/b compare them but i know what i like and what I don't do we'll see, my bet is on chu
I have them and they are great i also have the blon 01 and find myself reaching more for the KZ zsn pros to listen to my music, go ahead and grab them you will not be disappointed !
Which area would you eq for this earphones. Also this or kz es4?
I dunno, but the next step up would be the ZS10 Pro.
Dude I'm surprised you even took the time to review this product:) way too many issues and short comings for my time but yeah if you are looking for $20 earphone I would just go with blon's as they are only $30 now.
These ZSN pros sound horrible
Which is better ??
Blon bl-03/Kz Zs10 pro/Zsn pro??
Can QKZ VK4 beat this all over or some point ?
How do you compare these to the newer "X" version?
I'm a drummer in need of some good EMI. I've been using my closed back headphones while I play along to tracks and wanting a good pair of EMI so I can't hear myself and the music equally, rather than play ING with one ear on one off. Would you recommend?
sony MH755 is ridiculously good for its price
Yu agreed! Some of the best sub base
Mh1c is incredible for $16 on eBay from China.
I like this design very much.
KZ Castor vs KZ Zsn pro which is better?
Zsn pro vs Blon 03
The upper end just lower in eq helps a ton
Hey. Can you share your insight in portable headphone amp.. I have a pioneers xdp 100r.. But sort feel short for dt770.. Everywhere I turn I can see only Fiio..
If you need a *real* cheap amp I got the Charjenpro Mini Stick USB-C dongle for $25. It easily drives headphones up to 100 ohms.
when is the a12t review?
i thought these were super harsh on the 4k just made me return them super quick.
Cheap IEMs dude. It's a struggle.
@@DMS3TV they had a 5 driver one and it was even worse somehow. was really hoping to have them as a back up pair
I gotta send you some IEMs from the collection my dude
@@DMS3TV i never use them tbh lol. I just stick with my superglued life 2s.
my kz zsn pros make a hissing sound in both ears. any help?
stay away from kz iems they are oversponsored trash...
Here from z's channel
Nice Vandersteens!
this guy's walls have missing textures
Personally, I like MandarinEs Symbio W tips a bit better. However, that's just personal preference 🤷
Kz es4 it is amazing hasn't failed me
Are this better than some $60 wireless earbuds? I was thinking to buy these end use the Kz az09 adapter so that it would cost me $ $55 and I wanna know if it’s a shitty idea or not
These aren’t worth it in 2023, check out the JBL endurance RUN or truthear project red.
if you can pick a colour why not pick a unique one
have a pair of purple zsn's as well
Got them for $13 , can’t complain.
Where did you buy them?
AliExpress, I would recommend you buy the CCA C10, they sound way better, Better bass, better highs, mids, and instrument separation. They are around $22-25 also on AliExpress.
Yes, the price is very favorable. It's already a great headset.
I’m an absolute noob in headphones and stuff, are these headphones soundwise better then for instance AirPods Pro?
Yes.
Bloom, grainy, shouty?
Just got these for DJing.
I found that they take some time to burn in to tame the highs
I want buy a KZ but I don't know which is better: ZSN or ZSN Pro or ZS10 Pro.
Zs10 Pro is twice the price. It's much more v shaped, more bass treble. Also better detail.
people seem to enjoy ZS10 Pro since they have more better aspect on everything than the two iems
i have the zs10 pros and i really like the way they sound. they are better than the t2 imo.
I really like my ZS10 PRO more than the ZSN PRO, they are the same but high freq is smoother and more extended in ZS10 PRO, meanwhile ZSN PRO would become a litle bit harsh
choose between zsn or zs10 pro. I cannot stand the hissing sounds in zsn pro.
I'm a bass head, I don't care too much about the vocals. Should I upgrade to ZSN pro from KZ ZS3?
My zs3s broke and I bought the zsn pros and it's a significant upgrade, I've had the zsn pros for about 2 weeks now and in every area they beat the zs3s in my opinion. I've had the zs3s, zsts and now the zsns and the zsns are by far my favorite kz earphone so far
Get Sony mdr xb55ap they are the best bass for a budget
@@killianfitzgeraldkippler today it's either zs10 pro you will like or kz xax which is a 14 driver configuration
viewing this video with KZ ZNS pro , good for price and i love it , but it's not comfortable with ears it feel heavy kinda feel after 30 mins , and feel better after remove it from ears not lite weighted
what headphone are you wearing in this vid?
DT880 (600ohm version)
are they good for casual listening? please answer
What is the song at the end?? Can you help me to find it?
Try using Shazam
@@ubayyd Fuck that shit. Miyamigo-b.i.t.d.

just buy this yesterday , i think i love this better in my Jbl endurance ❤️
KZ ZSN Pro or TRN V20?
I would rather pick ZSN Pro
@@shirufin5928 thanks
i have the kz zsn pro x model, but they produce hissy static, what should i do?
sounds like the problem is on the device itself you listen on
No Mic?
so shawty he says
What if my brother is shouting can i still hear him when i wear this?
Depends on how much volume you use.
Why don't they ever mention the 'burn in' period required for this.!? Or is it common knowledge?
Because they sound terrible out of the box., Even after burn in i would not listen to this iem without EQ turing down the high.
How much they change with the equalizer?
@@euge... better than any other non iem earphones at the price range...
Now however theres new iem 'KZ ZST X' same price as ZSN pro i think..
Sounds exactly as good as my KZ ZS10 Pro..
Can't tell them apart. It's amazing. Definitely recommend it over KZ ZS10 pro which is like 2 and a half times more expensive
Are iems useful for daily normal music listening ??
In Ear Monitors are good for people who appreciate music without any changes to the original music meaning no changing the bass, treble, etc.
In my opinion, yes.
how you gonna make a rivew about headphones and you never wear them once in the video !
Because I wore them for weeks before filming. Also in 2024 these aren’t worth purchasing anymore.
@@DMS3TV fair enough, what is worth buying then , the pro2?
@@ajXDXP I tend to avoid KZ now after the whole mess with them trying to pay-off reviews.
Moondrop Chu is solid at this price point. Moondrop aria is also great for more.
@@DMS3TV thnx for the advice , big ups

Go for the Andro
Buy the $20 one
@@kylerclarke2689 just got my hands on the andro 2020, I think it sounded pretty good :)

why is this video so wide

PlayerCompare woah, you’re the first person I’ve seen saying this. You sure you didn’t get a faulty pair??
You can check to see if you use an adapter, which is often the cause of this thing.
